text: SEEKING FREELANCERS - Remote - Frontend - Javascript, HTML, CSS<p>I'm looking for a number of people who are interested in freelance work in (primarily) JS. Remote is fine, prefer full time (or close) availability and some overlap with US Eastern time would help.<p>The development will be using our API and the Google Closure library (experience not required). A strong background in JS/HTML/CSS is needed.<p>There are a large number of projects available and they require little coordination, so they are pretty ideal for remote freelancing.<p>Contact me (Tom) at tjanofsky at monetate if you're interested or have any questions.<p>Thanks!
